"Carrier of collective memory and based on an immemorial tradition, my pictorial conception in a composite style is invested with the meaning of the past and its symbolic richness.

Under rock, classical and contemporary influence, my emotional universe, shaped by borrowing, is built in this spirit of filiation by merging genres.

"I transmit, I do not innovate". (Confucius)

Sensitive to this ethic, I also reactivate a secular gilding technique, whose tone of resplendent gold, the ideal basis for all variations, magnifies the expression of the compositions, transcends the aesthetic, sublimates the style.

The subtle alliance of the precious solar metal in its original state, harmoniously associated with layers of blood and black stone gives my work a prestigious, original, unique style.

Respect, rigor, humility, a philosophy of craftsman which leads me to deepen the subjects in an authentic way, to capture their soul ...

At the heart of this symbiosis, the permanence of the link, the DNA of my approach, embodies the essence of my artistic creation. "
